NEED HELP ASAP Ann, Ben, and Cindy were eating strawberries. The ratio of the numbers of berries they ate is 5:5:7. If Cindy ate 30 strawberries less than Ann and Ben together, what is the total number of strawberries the three of them ate?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

170

Step-by-step explanation:

given:

Ann, Ben, and Cindy were eating strawberries.

The ratio of the numbers of berries they ate is 5:5:7.

If Cindy ate 30 strawberries less than Ann and Ben together,

find:

what is the total number of strawberries the three of them ate?

solution:

add the ratios 5 + 5 + 7 = 17

since Cindy ate 30, less than Ann and Ben together so, the equation is

7x = 5x + 5x - 30

7x - 10x = -30

x = 30/3

x = 10

ann 5 x 10 = 50

ben 5 x 10 = 50

cindy 7 x 10 = 70  

total            = 170

Answer 2
Answer:  170

==============================================

Explanation:

A = number Ann ate

B = number Ben ate

C = number Cindy ate

Let x be some positive whole number

Since A,B,C is in the ratio 5:5:7, this means

A = 5x

B = 5x

C = 7x

Note how A:B:C = 5x:5x:7x = 5:5:7. We divide all parts by x to simplify the ratio.

-------------------

Cindy ate 30 strawberries less than Ann and Ben, so

C = A+B-30

C = 5x+5x-30

C = 10x-30

Earlier in the last section we had C = 7x, and now we found C = 10x-30

Since we're talking about the same C value, we can equate and solve

C = 7x

10x-30 = 7x ... replace C with 10x-30

10x-7x = 30

3x = 30

x = 30/3

x = 10

------------------

With this x value, we now know that...

A = 5x = 5*10 = 50

B = 5x = 5*10 = 50

C = 7x = 7*10 = 70

Cindy's count (70) is 30 less than Ann and Ben's combined count (50+50 = 100), so that helps confirm the answer.

Further confirmation comes from 50:50:70 reducing to 5:5:7 when you divide all parts by the GCF 10.

--------------------

The last step is to add the values of A, B and C.

A+B+C = 50+50+70

A+B+C = 100+70

A+B+C = 170

---------------------

Side note: since A+B+C = 5x+5x+7x = 17x, this means that the final answer is a multiple of 17.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Circle:

diameter = 30 ft

r = 30/2 = 15 ft

Area = πr²

         = 3.14 * 15*15

         = 706.50 square feet

Triangle:

base (b) = 30 ft

height (h) = 20 ft

Area = [tex]\frac{1}{2}bh[/tex]

        [tex]=\frac{1}{2}*30*20\\\\=30*10[/tex]

       = 300 square feet

Area of four triangles  = 4 * 300

                                    = 1200  square feet

Area to be painted blue = area of circle + area of 4 triangles

                                        = 706.50 + 1200

                                        = 1906.50 square feet

Area painted by one bucket blue paint  = 350 sq. feet

Number of paint buckets needed = 1906.50 ÷ 350

                                                       = 5.44

                                                       = 6

6 buckets of blue paint is needed.

Cost of 6 buckets of blue paint = 85.50 * 6

                                                    = $ 513

Each part of the design needs two coats.

So Cost for  two coats = 2 * 513

                                     = $ 1026

Square:

Side  =  40 ft

Area of square = side *side

                         = 40*40

                         = 1600 sq. ft

Area of square to be painted yellow = area of square - area of circle

                                                           = 1600 - 706.50

                                                          = 893.50 sq.ft

Area painted with  one bucket of yellow paint = 250 sq. ft

Number of yellow paint buckets needed = 893.50 ÷ 250

                                                                    = 3.574

                                                                    = 4

4 buckets of yellow bucket is needed

Cost of 4 buckets of yellow bucket = 64.50 * 4

                                                          = $ 258

Each part of the design needs two coats.

So Cost for  two coats = 2 * 258

                                     = $ 516

The SAS theorem is a triangle congruence theorem which states that two triangles which have two pairs of corresponding sides that are congruent and a pair of corresponding included angles that are congruent are congruent triangles.

1. Based on the SAS theorem we can conclude that: B. ΔJKE ≅ ΔLYE because SAS.

2. In the triangles given, we are only given that they have two pairs of corresponding congruent sides. No known congruent sides were given. Therefore, we don't have enough information. The answer is: E. No enough information to prove the triangles are congruent.

How do you do this question?

Answers

Answer:

bn = 1 / n

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to show the series an diverges.  So we need to find a smaller function bn that diverges.  That means we can eliminate options C and D, both of which converge.

an = (3 + sin(n) + e⁻ⁿ) / (2n − 1)

Sine is between -1 and +1, and e⁻ⁿ  approaches 0 as n approaches infinity.  So the numerator is a minimum of 2 as n approaches infinity.  So we can make a new function:

an = 2 / (2n − 1)

Let's look at option B: bn = 4 / √n = 2 / (½√n).

½√n is less than 2n − 1, so bn is greater than an.  We can't use that to show that an diverges.

Now let's look at option A: bn = 1 / n = 2 / (2n).

2n is greater than 2n − 1, so bn is less than an.  Since bn diverges, an must also diverge.
